ABSALOM.

1t is very general belief that Absalom
was caught by the hair of his head in the
tree and that when his mule passed away
he was left so hanging. There is moth
ing of the kind stated in the scriptural
account. We are distinctly told that his
head caught hold of the oak; he was
probably caught in the fork of branch
by the neck. 1t is not pleasant to be
caught at any time, but if we catch you
in our store any time during the next
sixty days and in need of new suit of
clothes or an overcoat, you will find 1t
hard to get away without one. We don't
intend that any shall get away. Our
bargains will be so great, and especially
on children's goods, that you won't feel
inclined to go elsewhere. Come early
and get the best selections.
